Recomendation for 8GB Flash Cards

[Lulz]

I need 8GB flash card to be used on Asus Eee PC which happen to have very limited amount of hard drive space.

Anyways, I know there is very good promo price on Kingston Data Traveler series and 8GB is selling for $29.99
Is there some other, preferably faster flash drives than Kingston but in approximately same price range?

ocz rally 2 is around the same price, or the corsair voyager (after rebate) for $20. I've seen the patriot 150x in the $30 price range as well.

Flash cards ... Kingston Data Traveler ... :confused:

Are you referring to USB drives ? Or SD cards ?

[badboy7]

you can go for sandisk... this also a good brand... with good read and write speeds...

I guess depends how fast you need it to be. I would say go for Sandisk Ultra II .. or a class 6 card .. otherwise the transfer speed is going to be horrible. It'll cost you more .. but save a lot in wait times down the road. If you don't care about speed then the Kingston is probably fine.

what's faster, Class 6 SD memory card or portable 5400RPM hard drive that connects via USB?

probably about the same ... you might also consider a 4-GB USB stick ... the OCZ ATV Turbo can pull around 35MB/s

Grrr, I can't fit World of Warcraft on 4GB USB :(
Damn Asus EEE has so little memory

Just FYI, WoW will hardly fit on 8GB, my install is 7.94GB. :(

I do have a few screenshots and addons but nothing huge, but I'm sure it'll break 8GB by next patch anyways, so either you get 16GB or an external HDD.
